Line Broadening and Shifts of Rare-Earth Ion Energy Levels in Solids.

Abstract

A general theory of inhomogeneous line broadening of rare-earth ions in solids is developed. An application of the theory to stoichiometric rare-earth host materials is given. The theory as developed has definite computational advantages to workers who have the facilities for the calculation of crystal-field energy levels. (Author)
